Chapter 155: Busy raising a family in a foreign land 155
By the time the two people came down from upstairs, it was already noon. After having lunch at Wei's house, the two of them stayed in the study and continued their discussion.
Wei Ada brought Wei Ran and others to help Xiao Qian clean up the west room.
Xiao Qian promised: "After we finish the work, Sister Xiao Qian will take you to the ice room to drink orange soda."
The children became more motivated.
Even Weidong followed behind and helped move the small objects.
Wei Miao was fanning Xu Ayu under the shadow of a tree in his yard, and raised his hand to touch the cub.
Unfortunately, the cub is as quiet as a chicken.
"When the fourth child comes out, he will definitely be obedient. He knows your prestige even in his heart."
Wei Miao knew that Xu Ayu was comforting her.
After all, everyone in the family had touched his belly, and the little guy greeted them very politely, and even Laba was treated differently by him.
Only Wei Miao's baby was punching in her belly one moment, and the next second when she put her hand on it, there was no movement at all.
For this reason, Wei Miao became the object of comfort for the whole family. Even Wei Dong hugged her legs and said:
"Big pot, Dongdong likes you."
Speaking of children, Wei Miao asked, "Mom, what do you think about hiring a servant for the family?"
Xu Ayu waved her hand quickly, "Why do you need a servant? I have discussed it with Nong Aba. He will take care of me during the first few days of delivery."
Wei Miao knew that he couldn't force her to do anything, so he said, "Mom, do you know how much a servant earns a month?"
Their former neighbor, Aunt Xiu, worked as a maid for a young couple in an apartment. Since food and accommodation were not provided, she was paid five dollars a month.
If food and accommodation are provided, the servant's wages range from 2 to 12 dollars.
"Mom, even if we hire the most experienced servant, the maximum salary is twelve dollars a month. But if Dad is taking care of you, the braised meat won't be delivered, and the loss will be ten dollars a day."
In fact, if I make two buckets of braised meat a day, I can earn ten dollars, and after deducting the cost, I will only have six dollars left.
But in order to make the numbers more impactful, Wei Miao used the Spring and Autumn algorithm.
When Xu Ayu heard this, his shrewd IQ began to return and he thought carefully in his mind.
No matter how strong she is, she still needs someone to stay with her for the first ten days.
Ten days is one hundred dollars, and for twelve dollars, you can have a servant for thirty days.
"Okay, girl, please!" Xu Ayu made the final decision.
Wei Miao rubbed his head against Xu Ayu's shoulder, which smelled of osmanthus, and said softly:
"Mom, you must take good care of yourself. I hope you can live a long life."
Xu Ayu was amused by her, "Only turtles can live a long life."
The mother and daughter chatted and laughed for a while, and Wei Miao saw that the pregnant woman was tired, so he helped her back to her room to rest.
When I came out, I saw Wei Ada carrying things from the opposite side towards his own home.
"These things are made of good materials. It would be a pity to throw them away. If you don't need them at home, you can give them to your uncle's family."
Wei Ada put down his things, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and told Wei Miao about his plan with some trepidation.
He was also conflicted when carrying the things back. They were all neighbors, and it seemed as if he had gone to help them just to get their things.
Wei Miao saw that he was in distress and said happily:
"My dad is the one who knows how to live. I didn't even think of that just now. No, I have to go over and tell Sister Qian that all the unused items belong to me and let my dad get rid of them first..."
Wei Ada saw his daughter jumping over and shouted:
"Ah Miao, don't be like this..."
Wei Miao ran over, looked at the things piled in the yard, and said with a smile:
"Sister Qian, do you really not want these anymore?"
Xiao Qian rolled his eyes and said reluctantly:
"Young Master likes spacious and tidy places, otherwise I would not be willing to part with these good things."
Wei Miao looked at Wei Ada stretching his neck and thanked Xiao Qian:
"Thank you very much. My house is empty and these things are very practical."
Brother Lu said that everyone has self-esteem and a sense of shame. Wei Miao used to think that these things were not as important as money and filling his stomach.
As time went by, she gradually realized that dignity is the most important thing for a person.
For example, Xu Ayu and others would sympathize with beggars on the street who were missing limbs, but would also despise Sanguangmazi who had all his limbs intact.
It's all because of dignity.
People without limbs cannot make a living and have to sacrifice their dignity to earn a living. But people with all their limbs have no shame to do the work. . .
Xiao Qian was very happy because he was able to help the person he loved, and his big eyes were rolling around.
When Lu Pingsheng and Zeng Baoshu came down, they both looked very happy, and it was obvious that they were having a very pleasant conversation.
"A Miao, let's set off now." Lu Pingsheng said.
"Didn't you say it would be at night?" Wei Miao was curious.
Uncle Zeng Bao was in a very good mood and explained to Wei Miao:
"It is said that there is an authentic work of Wang Xizhi somewhere. I can't wait to see it in person."
General Wei A handed the gift money he had prepared to Wei Miao and said:
"When Nong's grandpa and grandma passed away, Grandma Cui gave gifts and went to help. Nong's mom is pregnant and can't help. Nong apologizes to her."
Wei Miao nodded repeatedly to indicate that he remembered it.
After the three of them left the alley, Xiao Qian pretended to be sad and said to Wei Ada:
"Uncle, I still have a lot of stuff at home, many of which are new. Do you think they can be used? If you can't use them, I can only chop wood and burn them."
In fact, all the things in the Zeng family are good things, especially those that the young master is willing to keep with him.
I can't bear to throw it away, but I don't want to give small amounts of money to others.
But after spending some time together, Xiao Qian likes the Wei family very much.
Just now she thought A Miao would mind, but when she saw the little boy happy, she felt that the gift was worthwhile.
When Wei Ada heard that he wanted to chop wood for burning, he quickly said, "Miss Qian, I'll buy some coal for your family later. It's no use burning good things."
Xiao Qian was happy, "Okay, I'll exchange my things at home for your coal."
In the evening, the Chrysanthemum Lane was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, especially the red silk hanging in front of Grandma Cui's house, which was very festive.
At the door, there was a makeshift troupe of people wearing red clothes and beating drums and gongs. Grandma Cui had her hair combed sleekly and a smile on her face. Cui Lijuan was also wearing a red cheongsam and was greeting the neighbors.
Mrs. Dong's barber shop was also decorated with new decorations, and the children in the alley were the happiest.
"My life is busy and fragmented, my red shoes are swaying in the water, and I cry into the room with tears in my eyes."
"The husband said: Don't cry, you will be a daughter-in-law for 20 years, a mother-in-law for 20 years, and a great-grandmother for another 20 years."
The tender voices of children echoed, and the adults found it so funny that they couldn't stop laughing.
"Cui Liping is such a lucky guy. Master Dong spent a thousand dollars to marry a wife with a good fate, and she married him with the house."
Some old neighbors are envious.
"We got to know each other in the East China Sea, but the journey is long and our hearts are hard to communicate. But when the road is open, the flowers will wither, and all is for nothing." Some people feel sour.
Facing the strange looks from the others, the man quickly raised his head to drink water and said with a chuckle:
"It's just a little tune, not something Allah said."
When Grandma Cui saw Wei Miao and the others coming, she quickly asked Cui Lijuan to welcome them into the house.
The main room was tidy. Cui Liping wore a red gown and looked very presentable, with a happy look on his face.
He raised his hand to Zeng Baoshu and Lu Pingsheng, "Dear guests, please come in."
Lu Pingsheng placed the gift at the reception desk and said to Cui Liping:
"Brother Cui, you are in high spirits when you are happy. I look more handsome and elegant today than before."
Wei Miao nodded repeatedly. Cui Liping was in high spirits because of his marriage and looked much friendlier.
Cui Liping was about to be polite when there was a noisy sound outside.
Wei Miao stuck his head out of the courtyard gate and saw a group of people carrying axes, looking ferocious and ferocious. It was obvious that they were here to cause trouble.
